Chapter 519

Su Xiao looked around, the people around had different expressions.

The sluggish short and fat steward, the beautiful songstress slowly retreating, the cowering coolie, and that silent Anbu.

Thoughts turned rapidly in his brain, Su Xiao secretly made a decision, he couldn't fight on the ship, whether he hurt the innocent he didn't care, mainly he couldn't destroy the ship, otherwise he couldn't leave the Land of Water.

A problem appeared, if Su Xiao left this ship, the people on the ship would immediately sail away.

Glancing at the songstress not far away, Su Xiao suddenly exploded.

Flashing behind the songstress, Su Xiao held the songstress's neck with one hand, and an alchemy bomb appeared in the other hand.

"Taking a hostage?"

The Hidden Mist Anbu didn't move.

"Let me go, woo~"

A white round ball was stuffed into the songstress Nao's mouth, Nao struggled hard, but that soft body couldn't break free from Su Xiao's restraint.

"If you dare to sail away, boom."

Su Xiao's hand pointed outwards, making a gesture representing an explosion, and while releasing the songstress, he slightly triggered the alchemy bomb.

Nao covered her abdomen, the burning sensation in her abdomen made her squat down and nod quickly, signaling that she would definitely not sail away.

Only then did Su Xiao look at the Hidden Mist Anbu, the other party didn't make a move, this only had two possibilities, one was that the other party's strength was very strong, thinking Su Xiao couldn't escape, and the second was that the other party was waiting for reinforcements.

Su Xiao guessed it was the latter, the time the other party discovered him shouldn't be long, if it weren't for him being about to leave, the other party wouldn't have appeared rashly.

As for destroying this ship, the other party didn't dare.

This ship had the logo directly under the Daimyo's mansion, from which it could be seen that the songstress was helping the Land of Water's Daimyo do things.

It was true that the Hidden Mist Village was the military force of the Land of Water, but the Hidden Mist Village didn't dare to openly provoke the Daimyo's mansion; the ninja village needed to consume a large amount of money and resources, all of which were provided by the Daimyo's mansion, if the Daimyo's mansion was offended, then the Hidden Mist Village could only go and drink the northwest wind.

Actually, the Daimyos of the Naruto world were very smart, they were somewhat similar to the chairmen of companies, and the ninja villages were departments under them.

The Daimyo's mansion wouldn't get involved in wars between ninja villages, it was purely a battle between ninjas, every ninja village had regulations, not to assassinate the Daimyo of enemy countries.

The hatred between villages had nothing to do with the Daimyos, just like the Hidden Mist Village and Konoha fighting to the death, the Daimyos of the two countries weren't necessarily hostile.

Ninjas died batch after batch, the Daimyos were still those few, and it was a hereditary system, this was the benefit of mastering financial power, of course, the Daimyo's mansion also had corresponding military power, just never dispatched.

This pattern ended after the Fourth Shinobi World War, only then did each ninja village start to develop its economy.

At this time, this Anbu ninja was stalling for time, waiting for companions to support.

Thinking of this, Su Xiao rushed forward a few steps, stepped on the ship's side, leaped to the nearby pier, and soon disappeared into the crowd.

The Anbu ninja pursued without hesitation, he also didn't want to fight on the ship.

"Set sail quickly."

The short and fat steward shouted almost screaming.

"Can't."

The songstress Nao's breathing was very rapid, although she didn't know what she swallowed, there was one point she could be sure of, and that was that if she dared to sail, she would die immediately.

"What?"

The short and fat steward's eyes widened, his expression somewhat distorted.

"Can't sail, sail... I will die."

"Huh?"

The short and fat steward was going crazy, what time was it, and she still didn't escape?

What the two didn't know was that Su Xiao also left other backups, such as the large wooden box on the ship, Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang was in the wooden box, if they dared to sail, Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang would break out of the box.

On the pier, the Anbu ninja moved quickly through the crowd, his nose twitching under the mask, this was a secret technique he mastered, capable of locking onto someone's scent.

At this time, he locked onto Su Xiao's scent, it was because of this ability that he could find Su Xiao.

"In front, no, it's already discovered that the scent was exposed, it's on the left."

The Anbu ninja walked quickly between the residential houses near the pier, it was nine o'clock in the morning, there was almost no one in the residential houses near the pier, most of the people living here were coolies or fishermen in the form of couples.

The Anbu ninja continued to track Su Xiao's scent, just as he rushed past a corner, a sharp light stabbed towards his face, the tip of the sword shining coldly.

Pshh.

The Anbu ninja was pierced through the face by a sword, his body twitched a few times and didn't move.

Su Xiao's brows frowned, that Anbu ninja didn't die, what he pierced was a Water Clone.

Body Replacement Technique + Water Clone Technique, two low-level ninjutsu, that Hidden Mist Anbu relied on two low-level ninjutsu to dodge this thrilling sword.

Fighting was not as simple as skill bombardment, the ability that could kill the enemy was a good ability, regardless of level.

Flicking the Water Clone off the sword, the Water Clone turned into a puddle of water after landing, that Anbu's main body didn't know where it was.

"Water Release: Hidden Mist Technique."

On the roof of a residential house, that Anbu formed hand seals with both hands, and thick fog gradually filled the surroundings.

The thick fog became thicker and thicker, Su Xiao's eyes were white, his line of sight was blocked, he closed his eyes to probe the surroundings with his perception, the effect was not obvious, the thick fog around was mixed with chakra, which would affect perception.

Swoosh, swoosh~

The sound of breaking wind came, and soft conversation came from within the thick fog.

"Very good."

"Are they all here?"

"Hmm, all five are here, prepare to use that."

Su Xiao stood in the thick fog without moving, the sound came from all directions, it was impossible to judge the enemy's position by sound.

According to those Anbu's discussions, there were five of them in total, but the actual number remained to be verified, this might be a trap to increase Su Xiao's pressure.

"Water Release: Water Dragon Bullet Technique."

"Earth Release: Yellow Springs Swamp."

A water dragon rushed towards him, at the same time the soil under Su Xiao's feet became soft, and he was gradually sinking.

These two moves cooperated seamlessly, Earth Release controlled his actions, and the water dragon caused an impact on Su Xiao while also making the mud swamp below even harder to escape from.

Boom.

Mud splashed, a long sword flew up, and finally fell to the ground.

"Did we get him?"

"The aura disappeared."

"The weapon also fell to the ground."

There were three Hidden Mist Anbu, not the five they said.

All three had the consciousness to pull away from Su Xiao, they should have understood Su Xiao's terrifying close-combat ability.

Sizzle~

The sound of thread contraction came, all three Hidden Mist Anbu felt the crisis coming and jumped up.

Just as the three jumped up, a stinging pain came from one person's shoulder, a metal thread that was hard to notice entered his shoulder.

If one looked carefully, one would find that there were green threads spread between several nearby residential houses, this was the Boundary Breaking Line.

Jumping down from a roof, Su Xiao hooked his finger, and Zhan Long Shan flew up from the ground, landing in his hand.

He was using the Anbu ninja's Hidden Mist Technique as cover, using the Boundary Breaking Line to set up a "barrier" around, except for killing him or cutting the Boundary Breaking Line, no one could walk out of this barrier.

Ding.

A crisp sound came, it was the Anbu ninja slashing the Boundary Breaking Line, although the direction couldn't be heard clearly, Su Xiao could judge the position from the vibration of the Boundary Breaking Line, the five fingers wrapped in metal were all tied with Boundary Breaking Line, each finger represented a direction.
